"Print" results in a gray box and lockup, and no printing
1. Changing default printer did not work, HP, Apple ,Toshiba

2. Word Excel Explorer, Acrobat and Texteditor all does not work, Eudora acually prints!

>>concluded that some central printer functions was messed up not a single printer driver or application

3. removed user/Library/preferences/com.apple.print.........plist. Does not work

4. tried priting printing as an other user, does not work

5. Removed HD/Library/prefererences/com.apple.print.FaxPrefs.plist
Still no go

I can open printer settings and printercenter as well as from withind the apps change "page setup" but as soon as I try to print the whole system lockup

this is scary
